Spalding's 
Athletic Library 

Anticipating the present ten- 
dency of the American people 
toward a healthful method of living 
and enjoyment, Spalding's Athletic 
Library was established m 1892 for 
the purpose of encouraging ath- 
letics in every form, not only by 
publishing the official rules and 
records pertaining to the various 
pastimes, but also by instructing, 
until to-day Spalding's Athletic 
Library is unique in its own par- 
ticular field and has been conceded 
the greatest educational series on 
athletic and physical training sub- 
jects that has ever been compiled. 
The publication of a distinct 
series of books devoted to athletic 
sports and pastimes and designed 
to occupy the premier place in 
Amerir » in its class was an early 
idea of Mr. A. G. Spalding, who 
was one of the first in America 
to publish a handbook devoted to 
athletic sports, Spalding's Official 
Base Ball Guide being Lhe initial 
number, which was followed at intervals with other handbooks on the 
sports prominent in the '70s. 

Spalding's Athletic Library has had the advice and counsel of Mr. A. G, 
Spalding in all of its undertakings, and particularly in all books devoted 
to the national game. This applies especially to Spalding's Official 
Base Ball Guide and Spalding's Official Base Ball Record, both of which 
receive the personal attention of Mr. A. G. Spalding, owing to his early 
connection with the game as the leading pitcher of the champion Boston 
and Chicago teams of 1872-76. His interest does not stop, however, with 
matters pertaining to base ball; there is not a sport that Mr. Spalding 
does not make it his business to become familiar with, and that the 
Library will always maintain its premier place, with Mr. Spalding's able 
counsel at hand, goes without saying. 

The. entire series since the issue of the first number has been under 
tt:;a direct personal supervision of Mr. James E. Sullivan, President 
of the American Sports Publishing Company, and the total series of 
consecutive numbers reach an aggregate of considerably over three 
hundred, included in which are many "annuals," that really constitute 
the history of their particular sport in America year by year, back copies 
of which are even now eagerly sought for, constituting as they do the 
really first authentic records of events and official rules that have ever 
been consecutively compiled. 

When Spalding's Athletic Library •vv:is founded, seventeen years ago, 
track and field athletics were practically unknown outside the larger 
colleges and a few athletic clubs in the leading cities, which gave occa- 
sional meets, when an entry list of 250 competitors was a subject of com- 
ment; golf was known only by a comparatively few persons; lawn tennis 
had some VQgu<> and base bal! was practically the only established field

EDITORS OF SPALDING'S ATHLETIC LIBRARY 

sport, and that in a professional way; basket ball had just been invented; 
athletics for the schoolboy— and schoolgirl— were almost unknown, and 
an advocate of class contests in athletics in the schools could not get a 
hearing. To-day we find the greatest body of athletes in the world is 
the Public Schools Athletic League of Greater New York, which has had 
an entry list at its annual games of over two thousand, and in whose 
"elementary series" in base ball last year 106 schools competed for the 
trophy emblematic of the championship. 

While Spalding's Athletic Library cannot claim that the rapid growth 
of athletics in this country is due to it solely, the fact cannot be denied 
that the books have had a great deal to do with its encouragement, by 
printing the official rules and instructions for playing the various games 
at a nominal price, within the reach of everyone, with the sole object 
that its series might be complete and the one place where a person 
could look with absolute certainty for the particular book in which he 
might be interested. .,,,,, 

In selecting the editors and writers for the various books, the lead- 
ing authority in his particular line has been obtained, with the result 
that no collection of books on athletic subjects can compare with 
Spalding's Athletic Library for the prominence of the various authors 
and their ability to present their subjects in a thorough and practical 
manner. ,. , - , , •. 

A short sketch of a few of those who have edited some of the lead- 
ing numbers of Spalding's Athletic Library ia given herewith :

WALTER CAMP ' 

For quarter of a century Mr. Walter Camp 
of Yale has occupied a leading position in col- 
lege athletics. It is immaterial what organiza- 
tion is suggested for college athletics, or for 
the betterment of conditions, insofar as college 
athletics is concerned, Mr. Camp has always 
played an important part in its conferences, 
and the great interest in and high plane of 
college sport to-day. are undoubtedly due more 
to Mr. Camp than to any other individual. Mr. 
^..^. , Camp has probably written more on college 

athletics than any other writer and the leading papers and maga- 
zines of America are always anxious to secure his expert opinion on foot 
ball, track and field athletics, base ball and rowing. Mr. Camp has grown 
«?l-^*^^ ^^^^ athletics and is a part of Yale's remarkable athletic system 
While he has been designated as the "Father of Foot Ball," it is a well 
known fact that during his college career Mr. Camp was regarded as one 
of the best players that ever represented Yale on the base ball field, so 
when we hear of Walter Camp as a foot ball expert we must also remem- 
ber his remarkable knowledge of the game of base ball, of which he is a 
great admirer. Mr. Camp has edited Spalding's Official Foot Ball Guide 
Bince It was first published, and also the Spalding Athletic Library book 
on How to Play Foot Ball. There is certainly no man in American college 
life better qualified to write for Spalding's Athletic Library than Mr. 
Camp.

that congress; he received several awards for 
his good work and had many honors conferred 
upon him; he is the author of a great many 
books on the subject: it was Dr. Gulick, who, 
• J , ^ , .. « , actingon the suggestion of James E. Sullivan, 
organized the Public Schools Athletic League of Greater New York and 
was its first Secretary; Dr. Gulick was also for several years Director of 
Physical Training in the public schools of Greater New York, resigning

History of the Association 



The first Inter-Collegiate contest in gymnastics was held 
March 22, 1899, at the New York University gymnasium, and 
was an unqualified success. While there was no association at 
that time, this meet has been regarded as the first meet of the 
Inter-Collegiate Association of Amateur Gymnasts of America, 
which was formed in the following year. The following colleges 
were present at the meeting in 1899: Amherst, Brown, Columbia, 
Cornell, Harvard, Haverford, Lafayette, Lehigh, New York 
University, Princeton, Rutgers, S\|^arthmore, Trinity, Union, 
University of Virginia, Wesleyan, Yale, and University of Penn- 
sylvania. All of these participants of the first year, however, did 
not enter the Association. There are at present in the Associa- 
tion, Columbia, Harvard, Haverford, New York University, 
University of Pennsylvania, Princeton, Rutgers, and Yale. Sev- 
eral other colleges will probably be admitted this coming year. 
The successful beginning of the Association was due largely to 
the efforts of Mr. Frank Cann of New York University, who has 
continued his interest by sending some excellent teams.

The Season of 1908-1909 



With the Inter-Collegiate Gymnastic meet held at Columbia, 
March 26, 1909, the college gymnastics for the year came to a 
successful close. The standard of work at the final meet was 
of the usual high order, but that of the tumbling event calls 
for special commendation. In this event unusually fine work 
was shown by Kelly of University of Pennsylvania who won it. 

During the season, Columbia defeated Annapolis, Lehigh, and 
New York University in duals, and came to the Inter-Collegiates 
a strong favorite. Princeton defeated Yale while the latter tied 
with Pennsylvania. This left Princeton as the strongest com- 
petitor for Columbia, and the results justified the prediction. 
Harvard was not strong this year and New York University 
was developing a new team to take the place of men lost by 
graduation. Columbia won the meet with 17 points, while 
Princeton scored 13 ; New York University coming third with 7. 

Schoonmaker of Columbia again won the all-round champion- 
ship, with Dowd of Princeton second, and Melitzer of Columbia 
third. The management of this meet was in charge of Allen T. 
Hopping of Columbia, and was most satisfactory.

Gymnasium Apparatus

:D C= 



MANY years' experience is behind Spalding 
Gymnasium Apparatus. The most thoroughly 
equipped and largest plant of its kind in the 
world makes possible the highest grade of apparatus 
at the lowest cost of manufacture. 

Apparatus of the highest grade— Spalding— insures 
safety to the users, saves the necessity of constant 
supervision of parts, gives freedom from worry and 
adds valuable time to the day's programme, does not 
''eat its head off" in repairs, gives by its durability 
many years of added service, and proves itself a 
valuable investment. 

Every piece of Spalding apparatus is manufactured 
and sold under the Spalding Guarantee, and the 
Spalding Guarantee for 30 years has meant something. 

To those contemplating the purchase of Gymnasium 
Apparatus we solicit a careful comparison of quality. 
The quality of apparatus selected is a potential factor 
in the success of the gymnasium. 

We will be glad to prepare plans and submit sug- 
gestions for college, playground or private equipments. 
Our experience, knowledge and facilities are freely 
offered to anyone interested. .

•■ "It is not so important '' 
to have big muscles as it 
is to have good digestion; 
it is not so important to 
have powerful muscles as 
it is to have a strong, 
regular heart; it is not so 
important to have great 
skill with one's muscles 
as to have good lungs 
and kidneys." — Extract 
from Spalding Athletic 
Library No. 161 —"Ten 
Minutes' Exercise for 

Busy Men." 
The value of a few min- 
utes' exercise daily with 
scientific and properly de- 
signed apparatus, is rapid- 
ly becoming apparent to 
the vast number of busi- 
ness men who find it sim- 
ply impossible to take 
regular outdoor exercise

Wooden lockers are objectionable* 

because they attract vermin, absorb odors,

Lockers made from wire mesh 6ir

of the 6,000 Durand-Steel Lockers Installed In thd 
Cymnasiums of Chicago. I2'x IS'x42", Double Tier. 

Durand-Steel Lockers are usually built with 
doors perforated full length in panel design with sides 
and backs solid. This prevents clothes in one locker 
from coming in contact with wet garments 
in adjoining lockers, while plenty of venti- 
lation is secured by ha\ing the door perfo- 
rated its entire length, but, if the purchaser 
prefers, we perforate the backs also. . 

The cost of Durand-Steel Lockers 
is no more than that of first-class 
wooden lockers, and they last as long 
as the building, are sanitary, secure, and, 
in addition, are fire-proof. 

The following Standard Sizes are 
those most commonly used : 



DOUBLE TIER 
12 X 12 x36 Inch 
15 X 15 X 36 Inch 
12 X 12 x42 Inch 
I5x 15 x42 Inch 



SINGLE TIER 
12 X 12 x60 Inch 
15 X IS x60 Inch 
12 X 12 X 72 Inch 
IS X 15x72 IncH 



811 Lookers In Double Tier 



Three Lockers In Single Tier

Special Sizes made to order. 
We are handling lockers as a special con- 
tract business, and shipment will m every 
case be made direct from the factory in 
Chicago. If you will let us know the num- 
ber of lockers, size and arrangement, we 
shall be glad to take up, through corre- 
spondence, the matter of prices.

Standard Policy 

A Standard Quality must be inseparably linked to a Standard Policy. 

Without a definite and Standard Mercantile Policy, it is impossible for a manufacturer to long 
maintain a Standard Quality. 

To market his goods through the jobber, a manufacturer must provide a profit for the jobber as 
well as the retail dealer. To meet these conditions of Dual Profits, the manufacturer is obliged to 
set a proportionately high hst price on his goods to the consumer. 

To enable the glib salesman, when booking his orders, to figure out attractive profits to both the 
jobber and retailer, these high list prices are absolutely essential; but their real purpose will have been 
served when the manufacturer has secured his order from the jobber, and the jobber has secured his 
order from the retailer. 

However, these deceptive high list prices are not fair to the consumer, who does not, and, in 
reality, is not ever expected to pay these fancy list prices. 

When the season opens for the sale of such goods, with their misleading but alluring high list 
prices, the retailer begins to realize his responsibilities, and grapples with the situation as best he 
can, by offering "special discounts," which vary with local trade conditions. 

Under this system of merchandising, the profits to both the manufacturer and the jobber are 
assured; but as there is no stability maintained in the prices to the consumer, the keen competition 
amongst the local dealers invariably leads to a demoralized cutting of prices by which the profits of 
the retailer are practically eliminated. 

This demoralization always reacts on the manufacturer. -The jobber insists on lower, and still 
lower, prices. The manufacturer, in his turn, meets this demand for the lowering of prices by the 
only way open to him, viz. : the cheapening and degrading of the quality of his product. 

The foregoing conditions became so intolerable that, ten years ago, in 1899, A. G. Spalding 
& Bros, determined to rectify this demoralization in the Athletic Goods Trade, and inaugurated what 
has since become known as "The Spalding Policy." 

The "Spalding Policy" eliminates the jobber entirely, so far as Spalding Goods are concerned, 
and the retail dealer secures his supply of Spalding Athletic Goods direct from the manufacturer 
under a restricted retail price arrangement by which the retail dealer is assured a fair, legitimate and 
certain profit on all Spalding Athletic Goods, and the consumer is assured a Standard Quality and is 
protected from imposition. 

The "Spalding Policy" is decidedly for the interest and protection of the users of Athletic Goods, 
and acts in two ways: 

FmsT— The user is assured of genuine Official Standard Athletic Goods, and 

the same fixed prices to everybody 
Second— As manufacturers, we can proceed with confidence in purchasing at 
the proper time, the very best raw materials required in the manufacture 
of our various goods, well ahead of their respective seasons, and this enables 
us to provide the necessary quantity and absolutely maintain the Spalding 
Standard of Quality. 
All retail dealers handling Spalding Athletic Goods are required to supply consumers at our 
regular printed catalogue prices— neither more nor less— the same prices that similar goods are sold 
for in our New York, Chicago and other stores. 

All Spalding dealers, as well as users of Spalding Athletic Goods, are treated exactly alike, and no 
special rebates or discriminations are allowed to anyone. 

Positively, nobody; not even officers, managers, salesmen or other employes of A. G. Spalding 
& Bros., or any of their relatives or personal friends, can buy Spalding Athletic Goods at a discount 
from the regular catalogue prices. 

This, briefly, is the "Spalding Policy," which has already been in successful operation for the 
past ten years, and will be indefinitely continued. 

In other words, " The Spalding Policy" is a "square deal " for everybody. 

A. G. SPALDING & BROS. 




standard Quality 

An article that is universally given the appellation "Standard" is thereby 
conceded to be the Criterion, to which are compared all other things of a similar nature. 
For instance, the Gold Dollar of the United States is the Standard unit of currency, 
because it must legally contain a specific proportion of pure gold, and the fact of its 
being Genuine is guaranteed by the Government Stamp thereon. As a protection to 
the users of this currency against counterfeiting and other tricks, considerable money 
is expended in maintaining a Secret Service Bureau of Experts. Under the law, citizen 
manufacturers must depend to a great extent upon Trade-Marks and similar devices 
to protect themselves against counterfeit products— without the aid of "Government 
Detectives " or " Public Opinion " to assist them. 

Consequently the "Consumer's Protection " against misrepresentation and "in- 
ferior quality" rests entirely upon the integrity and responsibility of the "Manufacturer." 

A. G. Spalding & Bros, have, by their rigorous attention to "Quality," for thirty- 
three years, caused their Trade-Mark to become known throughout the world as a 
Guarantee of Quality as dependable in their field as the U. S. Currency is in its field. 

The necessity of upholding the guarantee of the Spalding Trade-Mark and main- 
taining the Standard Quality of theu- Athletic Goods, is, therefore, as obvious as is the 
necessity of the Government in maintaining a Standard Currency. 

Thus each consumer is not only insuring himself but also protecting other con- 
sumers when he assists a Reliable Manufacturer in upholding his Trade-Mark and all 
that it stands for. Therefore, we urge all users of our Athletic Goods to assist us in 
mamtaining the Spalding Standard of Excellence, by insisting that our Trade-Mark be 
plainly stamped on all athletic goods which they buy, because without this precaution 
our best efforts towards maintaining Standard Quality and preventing fraudulent 
substitution will be ineffectual. 

Manufacturers of Standard Articles invariably suffer the reputation of being 
high-priced, and this sentiment is fostered and emphasized by makers of "inferior 
goods," with whom low prices are the main consideration. 

A manufacturer of recognized Standard Goods, with a reputation to uphold and a 
guarantee to protect, must necessarily have higher prices than a manufacturer of cheap 
goods, whose idea of and basis for a claim for Standard Quality depends principally 

the eloquence of the salesman. 

We know from experience that there is no quicksand more unstable than poverty 

ity— and we avoid this quicksand by Standard Quality.
